AllanJM Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Kane definitely adds plenty up front for them but we don't do clean sheets anyway so he can get their consolation if he wants. What he doesn't sort is how much they struggle at the back. Between Rudden running around them, Hamilton coming on to shove them around when they're tired and Vaughan and "insert winger name here" we should have plenty of chances. Lets not forget Sam "the parslayer" Stanton too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I was blatently unaware that he had the power of Christ compelling him to score against us and no one else. Samuel had the Mark Yardley effect that day 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now deleted Didn’t see it but you’d feel the same I suppose seeing a midfielder playing in your position. The fact he never even got the diddy cup game against Airdrie was poor for me. Our poor form and leaking goals more than merited a chance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SerieA Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Aye the amount of game time he’s had is poor. Get the feeling he’s closer to training with Millen than getting a start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now deleted That’s a shame if he’s been released. Never really given a chance. I’m pretty much where everyone else is. Getting above United was always unlikely given their budget so to have given them a run for their money has been great and still not over yet. Even if we are in the Championship again then I’d trust Potter and Murray to sort out the defence and put us in a decent position to challenge again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve got to agree, Murray was a defender and doesn’t prioritise that part of the team. The injuries are out of his hands and has to do with whose available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirJimmyofNic Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 (edited) For me, It's all about maintaining 2nd place anything else is a bonus, along with the added finance that goes with Just hope next season we have a proper less injury prone defence Young hungry players was the cry at the start when the new guys took over, that worked out well , would be surprised if any would want to join us to sit on their arse all season Edited March 6 by SirJimmyofNic 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In his 18 months here, he’s signed Keith Watson, Euan Murray, Dylan Corr, Lee Ashcroft, Daniel O’Reilly, Ross Millen, Connor O’Riodan, Kieran Ngwrnya and Ryan Nolan. Not sure he could be blamed for the injuries, and as for rest, decent, or seemed a decent signing when made. 23 minutes ago, Ro Sham Bo said: Why?

Can it be accessed from the south stand along the back of the old part of the railway stand.

da_no_1 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 2 hours ago, Stardog_champion said: I can see United pulling away now, we have real concerns about defence and all the teams will be out to exploit that. We have to score at least 3 goals because of the clear cut issues at the back. If Chris Kane is fit for the Pars then we’re in a world of hurt. Obviously they rested players yesterday against Airdrie and were soundly beaten. They will be a different animal when they come to Starks. What a load of old arse this post is. You on the wind-up? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 (edited) We've come a hell of a long way since last season, it's important to keep that in mind. Albeit I do think the management have been very well backed, that squad shouldn't be lower than 2nd or 3rd - but we are closer to Utd than anyone would have realistically expected. That said, it's perfectly fine to be frustrated at the past couple of month. Dundee United have dropped points 6 times since we beat them at Tannadice, yet we are 4 points behind. They've given more opportunities to take advantage than we could gave realistically asked for, didnt strengthen that much in January- and to be honest the Rovers have crumbled a bit. In particular, blowing a 2 goal lead twice against a frankly awful Arbroath side is tough to take. As was taking the lead against Ayr, Inverness and Queens Park at home, and ending up with 1 point. Considering the experience on the pitch, there's been some pretty sketchy game management on show. Not a failure by any means, but I do feel we could look back at this sesson as an absolute huge opportunity missed. Under Mcglynn in 2011 we ran out of steam, this has been bit different.

SerieA Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 I think we all know that strange results can happen in this league but the 2 against Arbroath are shockers and could ultimately cost us the league. United will show us how to deal with the worst team in the league on Saturday 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrossgatesCynic Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Some folk going full self-preservation already for Saturday. I’m not entirely sure what it is about Chris Kane that we should be particularly worried about? He could score a brace on Saturday & my opinion on that won’t change. Beyond that, folk getting themselves really worked up over the ifs, buts & mibbes of the rest of the season. Rovers will drop points between now & May. So will Utd. Surely more worthwhile to just get behind the team & enjoy the games that are left, eh? 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
